Goodbye solar panels! Wind energy at home works like large turbines in wind farms, and promises to revolutionize the generation of renewable energy in the world!

The average energy consumption in a Brazilian residence is R$387,22 per month. A homemade mini wind turbine project promises to reduce this bill to up to R$153,06 and outshine solar panels! The constant increases in electricity bill They have been keeping families awake, as they no longer know what to do to save money. On the other hand, accessible and low-cost technological solutions available over the internet have allowed the installation of mini wind turbines in homes, which provides good savings on projects that pay for themselves in a short space of time, see below how to acquire yours!

In Brazil, wind energy is responsible for less than 11% of energy consumption, and projections indicate that it should reach 13,6% in 2025. Watch the video below and see how to install your mini wind turbine.

Mini wind turbine is priced like a cell phone

Available on online purchasing platforms such as Mercado Livre, OLX or others, mini wind turbines have prices that vary according to the brand and power, and start at up to R$2.250,00. These homemade mini turbines are overshadowing solar panels, as they promise excellent energy efficiency and work like wind farms.

It all started with the announcement by the Indian startup, Avant Gard Innovation, about its mini wind turbine which, for the cost of U$ 1.175,00, equivalent to R$ 5.875,00, delivers up to 1kw/h already at 230 volts. The equipment is capable of generating 5,5 kW/h per day and 165 kW/h per month.

Unfortunately, the Indian product is not yet available in Brazil, but as “the best thing about Brazil is the Brazilian”, there are already national adaptations at a very affordable price, available online and which can be delivered quickly by the Mercado Livre.

Although the Brazilian adaptations are a little more expensive than the Indian ones, they solve the problem in a more satisfactory way, since they include a bank of batteries to store the generated energy in their estimated cost.

It is worth remembering that, to correctly install a mini wind turbine and integrate it into your home's electrical system, it is essential to have assistance from a professional specialist in the area.

Let's be honest, who doesn't want to lower their electricity bill? I'd love to know if you already have renewable energy in your home. Tell us in the comments section about your experience.
